I’m alive, and coming back

Been down all week with the crud/cold/rsv. Feeling better today just doing some mobility movements around the house after being in bed all week.
 
Everywhere. My wife and daughter got worse then I did. My daughters school had to cancel several days for staff being sick.
 
Most of it here is RSV. We really didn’t see this much except in children and old ppl until the Covid jab jabs.
 
Past 10 years my aunt claimed to have rsv (doctors said she didnt). Everytime anyone was sick she told them to it’s probably RSV and to Google it. Tried to convince anyone with a cold it was RSV. Now she probably feels vindicated lol. When people are getting it now lol.
 
Lololol that’s too funny. Literally half the unit right now is RSV. of all ages. Fucking wild. I don’t think I’d ever had anyone under 75 have it before now.
 
There’s two fellas in my building about my age that got it and they were both out for almost two weeks. It tore them up.
 
Luckily the big boss (real nice guy) is an extreme germaphobe and has absolutely no problem if we telework if not feeling well in the slightest.
 
Out of ignorance…. Is there some sort of “swab” test for RSV?

The old dudes at work got knocked on their butts. They never mentioned RSV or FLU… not real sure they even sought medical attention.
 
Yessir! Same concept as Covid of flu swab. Tickle the brain and send it to the lab.
 
Had you on mind. My stepson and his wife got me a carhart pocket T. It’s an xl… extra loose. Fits great. Very baggy. A xx or xxx extra loose would be what you like. Training in it now. Perfect.
 
Haha my poor pecs back them. Had just torn one of them if I remember correctly! That flash comp got me back on track forreal.
 
Worked Friday night- this morning. Finally starting to feel better but now it’s time to cough up all the shit I’ve been brewing in my chest.

Holidays are strange times. I worked with mostly new grad nurses this last stretch and left them with the following advice:



I’ve decided to embrace the roll of that “older/old school night shift nurse” that has gotten weird from being nocturnal for so long. @rnmuscle knows exactly what I’m saying. 😂😂

Will attempt to do some light upper body in a few and see if I can keep out of a gross hacking coughing fit. Will post details once finished.
